this restaurant offers traditional peruvian food. they have of course "cuy" and trout in many preparations. Is a good place to eat with tables in aterrace so you can enjoy the view of the street full of tourists.They offer a wonderfull happy hour, with the main atraction of course "pisco sour"We ordered ceviche of pejerrey (silverside) and trout with veggies.was tasty and fresh.its a good choice if you want something typical and cheap.

Three of us decided to have lunch here while waiting for our train back to Cusco. The restaurant was not full when we sat down. The waitress spoke little English but took our orders fairly quickly. It went downhill after that. Service was very slow and finally 2 dishes were served but not my husband's pizza. My daughter and I were done eating when it finally came, and then he said it was not what he ordered but ate it anyway due to the fact we had to get out of there quickly. We asked for the check and it took them at least 10 minutes to figure it out. When we finally got it we think it was incorrect (too much) but didn't have time to argue as we had to run to the train station. Too bad as it was recommended to us by friends who ate there previously.

We ate here as our Lares Trek expedition company suggested it following a morning in Machu Picchu. It was AWFUL. The food was terrible & hugely overpriced, the service even worse. My partner doesn’t like onions and had to send her meal back twice, finally refusing to eat there. The restaurant was full of noisy, rowdy tour groups and no effort was made to respect other patrons.Avoid this place at all costs.

We arrived exhausted after the tour of Machu Picchu and was grateful for a quick clean up at the neat washrooms. Food was warm and nice and the service was really nice. WE had the buffet lunch as part of the tour package. We visited in March 2012.

This is a popular place for tourists and groups. I was part of an Intrepid group and this was the place chosen by the group leader. The service was good. Most of us had the wood fired pizza which was very good. Presentation was good. Peru is a food culture country. They just seem to know what to do.

After a 3 hour hike in Machu Pichu, we craved a good pizza. Unfortunately this place did not deliver on the good part. The pizza was average at best.Our waiter however was excellent! We sat at the back of the restaurant by ourselves, opened the window and listened to the roar of the water while drinking good wine and eating average pizza.

Reviewed By Hoang P

We settled with this restaurant with their happy hour special of buy 4 at a reduced pricing. After many days enjoying Peruvian food, I was settled with something staple like a soup. I ordered the beef noodle soup and it was a full bowl with lots of string noodles. The soup was tasty but the beef was very tough. We were seated on the second floor of the restaurant over looking the train entrance to Aguas Caliente and the mountains. The view was very nice, food is ok.

Peruvian home cooking restaurant, as its name informs (Ayasca Peruvian Comfort Food). Restaurant attached to the Tierra Viva hotel. Modern and beautiful decoration.Very friendly and efficient service. Buffet by day and menu by night. We ordered good ceviches, trout and “lomo saltado”(strips of steak with sauté vegetebles). Good value for money.
